Waiting on Wednesday: I Don't Want to Wait

Tuesday, June 30, 2026



Hi all,

Stopping by to let you know about a book that I am waiting on! 

Author: Kerr Smith
 
Summary from Goodreads:
A season-by-season deep dive into Dawson’s Creek, “one of the biggest teen dramas of all time,” (Variety) full of never-before-heard stories and behind-the-scenes insight into fan-favorite characters, from one of the show's stars, Kerr Smith. 


Welcome back to Dawson’s Creek, where the banter is fast-paced, soulful pop music underscores all emotional moments, and friendships could always turn into something more. This nostalgic look back at one of the hottest, most paradigm-shifting shows – written by one of its stars – will transport fans right back to Capeside, MA, revealing all the fun, romances, friendships, and drama, that happened in that small town – on and off the screen.
 
From episode deep dives to never-before-heard stories of crazy days on set and crazier nights after filming wrapped, Dawson’s star Kerr Smith takes us behind the scenes of the classic show that kickstarted the teen TV revolution of the late 90s and early 2000s. Featuring interviews with his fellow cast members, crew, and the writing team, Kerr Smith has written the ultimate yearbook for Capeside High, revealing the origin stories of Dawson, Pacey, Joey, Jen, and others, insights on how the drama-filled storylines came to be – and a few that almost didn’t – and his own personal story, from growing up in a small town of his own to what it was like to be part of the first passionate gay kiss on American primetime.
 
I DON’T WANT TO WAIT is the ultimate chronicle of a show that fans can’t help but come back to, time and time again. In Joey’s words, “Things change. People change.” But Dawson’s Creek is forever.

Waiting on Wednesday: The Thoroughbreds

Tuesday, May 19, 2026


Hi All,

Stopping by to share a book that I am waiting on.

Authors: Elin Hilderbrand and Shelby Cunningham
 
Summary from Goodreads:
Class is back in session!

It's the start of another school year at Tiffin, with our favorite characters from The Academy returning for senior year - "sixth form" in Tiffin‑speak - a time of college admissions and trying not to crack under pressure, of partying hard and last hurrahs.

In the wake of Honey Vandermeid's exit, will the new college counselor be up to the task? What do the cards hold in store for Tiffin's It couple, Charley and East? What will become of underground speakeasy Priorities? And what was in Cinnamon Peters's final email?

Elin Hilderbrand and Shelby Cunningham answer these burning questions and more in The Thoroughbreds, a page‑turning story about friendship, treachery, ambition, and sacrifice.

Waiting on Wednesday: Hollow Bones

Tuesday, April 14, 2026



Hi all,

Stopping by to let you know about a book I am waiting on.

Author: Jodi Picoult
 
Summary from Goodreads:
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of By Any Other Name comes a riveting novel about the risks we take to protect the ones we love in a world where crisis is always just around the corner.

On September 11, 2001, when Molly Fitzgerald was only two months old, her mother went to an appointment at the World Trade Center and never came home. Her father and the stepmother who raised her couldn’t have loved her more, but she still grew up with a healthy dread of disasters.

Now an adult, she runs the Rhode Island Department for Emergency Preparedness, mapping out ways to save lives during storms, epidemics, and airplane crashes. She and her husband, Jesse—a police polygraph expert with his own history of crisis—have found a love that is a solace in a dangerous world. But then the unexpected upends their new marriage, leading them both to question everything they thought they knew.

Moving between past and present, Hollow Bones is an epic story of the lies we tell ourselves as we write the narratives of our lives, the plans we design to protect ourselves at the worst moments, and the ties that bind mothers and daughters.

Waiting on Wednesday

Tuesday, April 7, 2026



Hi all,

Stopping by to let you know about a book that I am waiting on. 

Author: Steven Rowley
 
Summary from Goodreads:
A poignant, hilarious, and wholly original love story, from the New York Times bestselling author of The Celebrants and winner of the Thurber Prize for American Humor.

College professor Jesse del Ruth has been abandoned. Thirty years into their relationship, Jesse witnesses his husband Norman get out of bed late one night, walk into their Joshua Tree backyard, step into a strange beam of light and . . . disappear. How could Norman desert him after a lifetime together? Where did he go? And, most confoundingly . . . will he ever return? Jesse knew they were longing for something, both feeling stuck. But had Norman been so stuck that his only option was to leave Jesse behind?

As Jesse struggles to understand Norman’s disappearance, he tries to piece together his new reality. Is he expected to wait patiently for a partner who may never come back? Or is this an opportunity for reinvention? He is, after all, alone for the first time in his adult life. Should he return to the classroom? Put in a pool? Get a dog? Call his estranged mother? What does it mean to be alone when you’ve always been one half of a whole?

When Norman’s sister Lally lands on Jesse’s doorstep with an urgent request, Norman’s absence becomes even more profound. Add to Jesse’s grief and confusion a conspiracy-theorist neighbor, a strange man following him, and suspicions that he may have had a hand in Norman’s disappearance, and Jesse starts to crack under the pressure. With his husband missing and the world closing in, all eyes are on Jesse. Before he can understand how Norman could leave it all behind, Jesse must confront what it means to stay.

In Take Me With You, Steven Rowley brings his resonant wit and emotional insight to an epic love story – an exploration of the forces that draw two people into the same orbit and the gravity that threatens to pull them apart.
